Default Intelligent NiCd/NiMH charger

Have a look round www.budgetbatteries.co.uk

I bought an Ansmann charger from them a few months back and it's been great.

I'm looking for a charger for AAA, AA and C size (and ideally also PP3)

NiCd
and NiMH batteries which fast charges with delta V sensing to cut off each
cell when fully charged. AIUI the delta V which signifies full charge is
different for NiCd and NiMH (-ve for NiCd, +ve for NiMH?).

I think there's a Varta charger which does this: there was a Green shop in
Hastings doing them for £20 last year but they've closed now and don't

have
any stock left. I'm told there's someone doing them at a subway under
Waterloo Station (at an address that sounds rib-ticklingly like the

address
to send the money to in Monty Python's Blackmail :-).

Maplin do a 'Vanson' (who they?) charger for £30 but it only talks

about -ve
delta V. (Vanson's website - quovadis.tv doesn't even mention this

charger,
and other retailers' websites say nothing except claiming intelligence of
charging).

Any suggestions?

Bonus points for one which runs off a 12V supply too!
